This is a verse and chorus of a song about a disgruntled Cape Breton miner. The singer is Dan MacNeil.

Many Gaelic speakers from rural parts of the island moved to the industrial areas to work in the coal mines. Some would stay in lodgings during the week and go home at the weekends. On Friday they would announce, "Tha sinn a' dol dhachaidh," meaning "We are going home." (Some were also regarded by the collectivised miners as "blacklegs," or scabs.) Hence, the disparaging term "the Yahie miners," "yahie" being a phonetic rendering of "dhachaidh."
